The north wind was howling and rustling the snow seeds on the car window, and Mrs. Guo asked the maid to lift a crack in the curtain and beckoned her husband and two sons, who were riding horses outside in the wind and snow, to come into the carriage.

Just opened this crack, the cold wind came in like a silver needle, freezing the people in the car to shrink their necks, the Guo family father and son are all military people, all the way in addition to staying in the house at night, during the day are riding horses to lead the team, the more north the colder, it is still cloudy, they can still bear it, at this time it is snowing, it is indeed frozen panic, Mrs. Guo shouted, they will flow into the car from Shanru.

Mrs. Guo's carriage was quite large, and she drove a few maids to the back car, and only their family of four was still sitting in the car, Guo Guang covered his fingers and drank, and said vaguely: "I didn't expect Kyoto's winter to be so cold!" ”

Mrs. Guo stuffed a hand stove for him, and said: "The winter in the border city is much colder than in Beijing, and the children will be frozen into icicles when they drag the tube, you loved to cry when you were a child, and you like to go out with your brother to play, you cry if you can't keep up, your tears and snot are frozen, and you cry home in pain, let me take a hot towel for you to cover, but you don't have a long memory, and you have to go out next time, you probably don't remember, Brother Yong still remembers?" ”

Guo Yong smiled: "I remember that Ah Guang loved to cry when he was a child!" ”

Guo Guang puffed out his cheeks and muttered, is there such a thing? Why didn't he remember?

General Guo listened to the gossip of his wife and children on the side, remembering the things of the children when they were young, and his heart was also very comfortable, he was born in a poor family, and he relied on his skills to get to this day, his wife and children followed him and suffered a lot, he was not like the Zhenguo Gong who was born noble, and he could be named a wife and a son, but now he also earned a life for his wife, and his two sons grew up with him in the military camp since childhood, and also learned a skill, he is only a little worse than those noble families, he can make meritorious contributions, and the two sons inherit their father's business, to his grandson's generation, That is, the son of the family.

In winter, it was dark early, and it was a snowy day, but only when Shen Shi lit the lamp, they calculated the time, and today they did not live in the post house outside Beijing, and went straight to Beijing, and the Zhenguo Mansion sent someone to answer at the gate of the city, and the weather was not good today, so they went to Jiang's house for a night, and then went to clean up their house tomorrow.

Chaoyang heard a few days earlier that the Guo family was going to Beijing, thinking about the Guo family brothers, they hadn't seen each other for two years last time, but now it's good to come, and they can play together in the future.

"Why haven't you come yet, I'm hungry!"

Jing'er prepared a dinner party at home, and when the Guo family came to the door, Chaoyang took a shower in the afternoon and put on new clothes, and went to her mother's house to wait for the guests to come.

She looked like a little family and Jing'er didn't know how many times she had chattered, "I don't know what kind of child of a small family thinks that he can't eat well in the day, and only relatives can eat a good meal during the New Year's Festival, so he waits on an empty stomach for a big meal, is it that I don't have your rations in my daily life?" ”

Chaoyang laughed and said: "It's different, I like to join in the fun." ”

When Guo Jiayou first arrived at Jiang's house, there was software in the house to pick them up to the backyard after getting off the carriage, and a total of four tops were prepared.

She has already experienced the hospitality of the county lord, Mrs. Guo has already admired it many times, this time it is more of a secret sigh for the grandeur of the Guogong Mansion, this entrance, the decoration in the house, the demeanor and posture of the subordinates, are not comparable to those of their family, this is the heritage of the noble family.

She was born in a civilian family, and over the years, she has gradually integrated into the circle of those local officials' families, she has no problem with the housekeeper director, she really doesn't understand, she asked her husband, will she dislike her for being a rough woman, no better than other people's wives, her husband only holds her and says that she is the best lady in the world, and others are inferior to her.

Guo Qing is a general in the army, and he often has colleagues to socialize, men's entertainment, it's always just wine and wealth, he is upright, those things are just a show, he really wants to touch the bottom line, he doesn't do it, his wife followed him when he was a little late, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the wife of the chaff is not an exaggeration, they have three children, and the family is better than anything else. He was born in a poor family, and he didn't have the common problem of concubines from rich families, and the concubines were too eye-catching, and in his eyes, his wife was not chaff, but his treasure.

The wife cautiously asked him if he would dislike her, and he asked her rhetorically: "Will you envy the county lord, the prince of Zhenguo loves his wife and takes care of his family, and he is both civil and military, and he is a rough person like me, but he is not half a point old, will you dislike me, and I can't compare to other people's husbands?" ”

Mrs. Guo said with a smile: "What pot with what lid, the prince of Zhenguo and the county lord are both dragons and phoenixes among people, that is a match made in heaven, we are just ordinary people, and it is suitable to match together." ”

When she first married her husband, he was still a poor soldier, and he was a small soldier guarding the border city, which was a livelihood with his head tied to the waistband of his trousers, and there were many wars in the border city, and some people died every year, especially these horse pawns, whose lives were not valuable, when she wanted to marry him, her parents and sisters persuaded her that she could have a good life if she married such a person, but now she is the existence of their envy, who did not praise her for being blessed in the past.

Mrs. Guo sat in the soft sedan chair and was smoked by the warmth of the carbon basin in the sedan chair, and when she came back to her senses, the soft sedan chair had already landed, and she heard the delicate greeting of the maid outside the sedan chair: "Mrs. Guo and the two sons are here, the county lord has been talking for a long time, the weather is not good today, but it is broken, the county lord has prepared a banquet, come in!" ”

Mrs. Guo said that they were polite, so they got up with their hands, walked to the porch and took the umbrella first, the maid opened the curtain, passed by the small flower hall and then entered the outer room, Jiang Ji's family sat in the outer room and waited for them, the inner room is the living place of Jiang Ji and his wife, and it is not good to entertain guests.

The two families met first and saluted, Jiang Ji and his wife were noble, the Guo family wanted to perform a national ceremony, the husband and wife both got up to support, saying that they were polite, and there were no outsiders, where did the relationship between the two families need to do these false things, only the younger generations would just bow to the elders.

Jing'er praised the brothers of the Guo family for being in good spirits again, "There are two boys in her second uncle's family, who are about the same age as you, let Jiang Shibo take you to visit the door another day, and you will definitely be able to play together." ”

Mrs. Guo smiled: "I'm afraid that the two of them are too rough and surprise the little boys." He praised Chaoyang again: "The lord of Weng is a big girl, and her whereabouts are getting more and more standard, and she is becoming more and more like the county lord. ”

Chaoyang smiled shyly, wherever she was, she was generally good.
